商品描述
This book, which is designed for middle-school through college-aged students, will arm beginners with solid programming foundations they can carry throughout life. It uses fun and simple language (and programming examples) to teach the fundamentals needed to start the down path of becoming a programmer. Python is a highly flexible language, allowing developers to enter any number of technical fields and is a welcome addition to any resume. With its low learning curve, it makes a great introductory language, as new developers can take the coding fundamentals they learn in Python and apply them to any other language.
The second edition builds upon the foundation of the first book, revising all the chapters where the language has changed, updating the commands, code, and examples to bring it up to date with the current version of Python.
Since Python is the most popular programming language in the world and can be used in conjunction with other languages - across multiple platforms - it can increase the reader's ability to qualify for a wider range of jobs than other languages. Finally, Python is fun - something not every programming language can boast!
What You Will Learn
- Install and configure Python
- Grasp basic software development principles and syntax
- Understand the best practices for coding in Python
- Create applications and debug code
Who This Book Is For
The book's target audience is primarily middle school to college aged students looking to learn how to program computers and develop software. Older individuals and computer programmers who know other languages and want to add Python to their repertoire can also benefit from the book.商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書是為中學到大學年齡段的學生設計的，旨在為初學者提供堅實的編程基礎，這些基礎可以伴隨他們一生。它使用有趣且簡單的語言（和編程示例）來教授開始成為程序員所需的基礎知識。Python是一種高度靈活的語言，允許開發人員進入任何技術領域，並且是履歷中受歡迎的一項技能。由於其低學習曲線，它是一種很好的入門語言，新的開發人員可以將他們在Python中學到的編程基礎應用於任何其他語言。
第二版在第一本書的基礎上進行了擴充，修訂了語言已經改變的所有章節，更新了命令、代碼和示例，使其與當前版本的Python保持最新。
由於Python是世界上最流行的編程語言，可以與其他語言結合使用，跨多個平台，它可以增加讀者獲得更廣泛工作機會的能力，超越其他語言。最後，Python很有趣-這是不是每一種編程語言都能夠自豪的！

- 掌握基本軟件開發原則和語法
- 理解Python編程的最佳實踐
- 創建應用程序並調試代碼
本書的目標讀者主要是中學到大學年齡段的學生，他們希望學習如何編程和開發軟件。年長的人和已經掌握其他語言並希望將Python添加到自己技能組合中的計算機程序員也可以從本書中受益。
作者簡介
James R. Payne was introduced to programming when he was just 10 years old. He started off hacking text-based games like Lemonade Stand to gain an advantage while playing and soon started creating his own text-based role-playing games in the style of Dungeons and Dragons and inspired by his favorite comic books. The enjoyment of those early days stuck with him, and he continues to be drawn back into the programming world throughout his career.
Payne is the former Editor-in-Chief/Community Manager of Developer Shed, an online publication and community consisting of 14 websites and forums dedicated to programming, web development, and internet marketing. Presently, he is the Editor of Developer at TechnologyAdvice. He's written over a thousand articles on coding and marketing, covering virtually every language and platform available. His first book, Beginning Python (Wrox Press) was published in 2010. In addition, he has published over 3,000 articles covering topics ranging from gaming to aerospace/aeronautics, and also writes adult horror and young adult fantasy books.
Payne decided to write this book to pass on his love of development in the hopes that it would inspire future generations to code.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
James R. Payne在10歲時就接觸到編程。他開始通過修改文字遊戲如《檸檬水攤位》來獲得優勢，並很快開始創作自己的文字角色扮演遊戲，靈感來自於《龍與地下城》和他最喜歡的漫畫書。那些早期的樂趣一直伴隨著他，並在他的職業生涯中一直吸引著他回到編程世界。
Payne曾是《Developer Shed》的前總編輯/社區經理，該在線出版物和社區包括14個網站和論壇，專注於編程、網站開發和網絡營銷。目前，他是TechnologyAdvice的開發者編輯。他已經撰寫了一千多篇關於編程和營銷的文章，涵蓋了幾乎所有可用的語言和平台。他的第一本書《Beginning Python》（Wrox Press）於2010年出版。此外，他還發表了超過3000篇文章，涵蓋了從遊戲到航空航天的各種主題，並且還寫成了成人恐怖小說和青少年奇幻書籍。
Payne決定寫這本書，希望通過傳遞他對開發的熱愛來激勵未來的一代編程人員。
